I don't' know what got into me this year but I decided to have a good time with St. Patrick's Day. Zachary saw that Valentines day was "red day" and was excited to have a "green day". It was important to him so we made a celebrations out of it. We threw up some decorations and the crafts that the boys did at school. As the day approached Adam talked about leprechauns and gold etc... the night before a leprechaun put some goodies in the boy's shoes, put streamers all over the house, left a treasure hunt for our guys to find. I put out a box of lucky charms with a special note on the box. I have to say i felt like super mom. It was fun to have a special say and treat the boys to some good memories.
That afternoon we took the boys out to Sandy Hook. Adam and Daddy got to climb up into the still operating lighthouse tower. They said that they could see the NYC skyline from there and that it was really cramped up there. Zachary was disappointed that he wasn't big enough to go but we went on our own adventure. We walked around the old base and got to see some old bomb shells from WWII. After the light house we went to a beach on the inside of the bay. They had a good time looking at the rocks, shells, and animals that we found.
